AP automation for finance teams: where to start
AP automation means capturing supplier invoices, matching them to orders and receipts, and posting them to the ledger without keying, and Webika helps finance teams work out where to start. Our operations assessment costs £4,000–8,000 + VAT / $5,000–10,000 and maps, costs, and prioritises your AP process.
We don't sell AP automation software. The assessment shows what your invoice processing costs today and which steps are worth automating first, in a prioritised plan you can act on with any AP automation system.

The AP automation process
Capture
Supplier invoices arrive by email or post, often across several entities, and their data is read instead of keyed.
Match and check
Each invoice is matched to its purchase order and goods receipt, and anything that doesn't match is flagged.
Approve and post
Matched invoices are routed for approval and posted to the ledger, ready for payment.
Sound familiar?
- Someone keys every supplier invoice by hand.
- Month-end takes too long.
- Invoices come in across several entities.

Work out what invoice processing costsQuestions
- What is the AP automation process?
- Supplier invoices are captured, matched to their purchase orders and goods receipts, approved, and posted to the ledger, with people handling only the invoices that don't match.
- What does an AP automation workflow look like?
- Invoices arrive in one inbox, their data is extracted, each is matched and checked, exceptions go to a person, and approved invoices are posted for payment. The assessment maps your current workflow against this.
- Do you sell AP automation software?
- No. We don't sell or resell AP automation systems or platforms, so the assessment's plan isn't tied to a vendor.
- Do we need cloud based AP automation?
- Not necessarily. Many teams use cloud-based AP automation platforms, but the right choice depends on your volumes, entities, and finance system. The assessment costs your current process first, so you can judge any system against real numbers.
- How much does AP automation cost?
- AP automation software pricing varies by vendor and volume. Webika's operations assessment, which maps and costs your AP process and prioritises what to automate, costs £4,000–8,000 + VAT / $5,000–10,000.
